I am interested in the history of astrology. Why so many great ancient nations oriented their destiny with the stars. Why even now, people try to learn their fate and get advice of astrologists. During my research in archives of web analytics company I found more interesting facts about it .
The history of astrology encompasses a great span of human history and many cultures. The belief in a connection between the cosmos and terrestrial matters has also played an important part in human history. There are three main independent branches of astrology today, namely Western astrology, Indian, and Chinese astrology. The study of Western astrology and the belief in it, as part of astronomy, is first found in a developed form among the ancient Babylonians; and directly or indirectly through the Babylonians, it spread to other nations. It came to Greece about the middle of the 4th century B.C., and reached Rome before the advent of the Christian era. In India and China, astronomy and astrology developed largely independently. There has to be something to this, I will find out more and post it in my future entries.
